==Answer to the anonymous editor==

First, please sign your posts. Unsigned posts appear to be vandalism, and show poor form. You just need to type 4 tilde's. I'm wasting time adding your signature to edits, and you continue to do so, I will ask someone to block you. Second, I revert a lot of vandalism every day, especially from anonymous editors such as you. However, I checked your edits, and you left a nonsense edit on ] page about Islam and the Pope. It was poorly written, it was inflammatory, and you failed to sign your name. It was ] pure and simple. Stop vandalizing my page, register yourself on here, and sign your name. At the point, you can be a very productive editor on Misplaced Pages. ] 01:16, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

Please don't be silly

Please don't monkey about with joke edits. We try hard here to produce something we can all be proud of, and silliness doesn't help. Articles are monitored, and users messing around could be blocked. Why not try and contribute something useful instead? Have a look at the below and get stuck in properly:

  The five pillars of Misplaced Pages
  How to edit a page
  Help pages
  Tutorial
  How to write a great article
File:Crystal Clear app kate.png   Manual of Style
  Fun stuff...

Thanks - and enjoy yourself as a responsible Wikipedian!


Template usage notes
  • Most testN and related templates take a single optional parameter: the name of the page to which the template is referring. If provided, this page will be cited in the warning.
    • test5 optionally takes two parameters:
      1. Duration of the block (defaults to "temporarily blocked");
      2. Name of the page to which the template is referring. If provided, this page will be cited in the warning.
  • Before placing any of these templates on a user's talk page, please refer to the index of test templates in case there is a more appropriate template there for you to use. This should minimize the possibility of the user being confused by your message.
  • Please remember to substitute the template (i.e. use {{subst:Silly}} rather than {{Silly}}).
